Neutrinos are about the tiniest things in existence, but developing a greater understanding of what they are and how they function is likely to have a huge impact in the next few years.

For years, organic electro-optic polymers have held the promise of vastly improving technologies such as communications, data processing and image displays.

In the not too distant future, if you miss a meeting, you’ll likely be able to check a database prepared by a computerized secretary that recorded, indexed and stored the event in such a way that you can search for the main topics of discussion, find out who committed to do what, determine participants’ stances on the topics at hand or pinpoint courses of action.

As the world’s population surges, pollution generated in one country more and more frequently invades the air of another country, most often a nation in the same part of the globe but occasionally one that lies thousands of miles away.

The economy’s recent slump prompted growing numbers of top U.

Increasing evidence clearly documents that air pollution from Asia can get caught up in an express transport system and cross the Pacific Ocean to the West Coast of North America in a matter of days.

Steven G. Olswang, 91±¬ÁÏ vice provost and vice provost for international education, professor of education and adjunct professor of law, has been appointed interim chancellor of the 91±¬ÁÏ, Tacoma.

Prolonged exposure to low-level magnetic fields, similar to those emitted by such common household devices as blow dryers, electric blankets and razors, can damage brain cell DNA, according to researchers in the 91±¬ÁÏ’s Department of Bioengineering.

A new imaging technique used by a group of researchers at the 91±¬ÁÏ and elsewhere has revealed a previously unknown cellular structure in the retinas of mice.

For years, organic electro-optic polymers have held the promise of vastly improving technologies such as communications, data processing and image displays. Now it appears scientists are on the verge of breakthroughs that will bring dramatic progress.

Neutrinos are about the tiniest things in existence, but developing a greater understanding of what they are and how they function is likely to have a huge impact in the next few years.

The economy’s recent slump prompted growing numbers of top U.S. college graduates to hunker down in graduate school, new data show.

Tiny microheaters that can prompt chemical changes in surrounding material may provide the means to more easily grow replacement tissue for injured patients and form the basis for medical sensors that could quickly detect pathogens.
